Abstract		The man's self-image is developed as a reflection of what others think about him and how they judge his actions and on the basis of evaluation of his achievements as well. This image varies significantly under the impact of important events in the course of a lifetime. A positive self-image is the basis for increased motivation in all activities and education. It is necessary for achievement of success in general and in learning i particular. To a lot of people often a fear of failure prohibits tackling of new enterprises of inscription into an education programme. With such people fear is mainly caused by lack of self-esteem, uncertainly and in many cases negative experiences in the past. Such fer is the main cause of escapism on the personal level and avoidance to confront one's actual situation. Due to the fact that self - esteem is strenghtened only by work which represents the testing ground, the conclusion is that a direct action is needed for self - confirmation. The achieved success finally increases their self-esteem and courage and gradually erases the fear of failure.
